Ricks Accident



Rick was driving home from work on his scooter yesterday when a four wheel drive did a U-turn in front of him. He was taken by the ambo's to logan Hospital and was there for six and a half hours. His knee was cut down to the bone, he had gravel rash every where and burns from the exhaust on his bike (which he landed on after flying through the air) He was nearly going to have surgery on his knee but they decided against it at the last minute. He has stitches on his knee and bandages everywhere. He was making friends with everyone who saw him, very loopy on the pain medication!

We are all so grateful he is ok. Hope you had a really great supportive mother with you at the hospital too! Oh, wait you did!!! LOL. And I can add testimony to the fact that Rick really "enjoyed" the pain medication!
We love you Rick

YIKES! Glad that he's okay. But, that knee looks pretty awful. Marlee prayed for you last night Rick, it was very sweet.
